FLU419 electrical issues

On my FLU419 the relay sockets were not in the same position outlined by the schematic. You can identify which socket is which by looking at the wire numbers. In my case I moved the relay sockets to the correct positions.

I was wondering if that might have happened on more than one rig. Absolutely agree, there is enough confusion without the components location differing from what the manual calls out. And it is imperative that the identification of the wires are confirmed before moving things around, just in case there were past modifications.

Alright, let's give this one last shot...
After not being able to find any place around me that would rebuild the starter, I opted to just go ahead and buy a new one.


So, I've got everything hooked up how I think it previously was, but now... I've got no power. Anywhere. I've got 24V in the battery series between the poles. I've confirmed that the main power switch (red plastic key) is functioning and am getting 24V on both sides when switch is engaged, testing from the + battery pole to the switch.

Now here's where I'm getting confused...
If I test any sort of constant power source (ie Ignition Switch) while using any of the normal grounding spots (back of fuse panel 1) I get nothing. But if I test a constant power source (Ignition Switch) and put the negative lead of the tester to the + battery terminal, I get 24v. I'm not the smartest when it comes to electricity, so I don't even understand how this is possible... I'm in much need of some hand-holding. What do I do from here?

Sounds like maybe you hooked up the starter wrong. You need to look at EVERY wire you removed and replaced doing the starter replacement. Start at the batteries.
